I arrived later that usual, in the afternoon, and was personally greeted by the manager at my taxi and he carried my luggage in himself! 🙂 I gave him his gift photo book for this year and he treated me to a steak dinner tonight. Wow! Being nice pays off in more ways than one! 🙂
Caribe Fun Tours got their photo book gift also and have arranged a driver to the new Butterfly Garden in Cahuita (their first request) where I will be their first to report back on it, plus I will also take a walk in Cahuita National Park after the butterfly house, which is nearby. They are also finding me a guide for Gandoca-Manzanillo Wildlife Refuge which is wilder and less visited than Cahuita with more wildlife. The only other place I may visit is a nearby organic farm and botanical gardens for the butterflies I remember seeing last time I was there. Otherwise I stay around this friendly hotel and their rainforest beach road looking for things to photograph! I’ve already seen more birds than I’ve been having at home and I’m very relaxed, having gotten the best relaxation massage in Costa Rica! 🙂
¡Pura Vida!
Charlie, you continue to share your life thru pictures with those of us that knew you back in your Tennessee days. It’s hard to believe you have been gone for eight years. Enjoy your current adventure and be careful with the wild creatures you may encounter.
I’m becoming more “careful” about everything now Bonnie and now use a “trekking pole” on all my walks to avoid what was becoming too frequent falls. 🙂 And so far the “wild creatures” avoid me! 🙂
Charlie it all sounds wonderful! Enjoy!
Thanks Bonnie! And “wonderful” is a good word for my life here! And I do enjoy it! 🙂
Way to go!!!
